Lovely to see my collaborators at Stirling and Scotland’s smoking research highlighted at the #ERScongress #ERS2025 - such an important topic

Exciting sessions today in 5C #ERScongress - Holistic yet personalised self-management of chronic respiratory diseases worldwide - why do we not just do more than inhaler technique at review appts

#ERS2025 #ERScongress - exciting workshop coming up!! @arranetwork.bsky.social

Looking forward to hearing all the fantastic work involved in the CONNECT project #ERS2025 #ERScongress

Love this study looking at the lived experiences of those with COPD

Brilliant morning presenting the work of PREC at the ERS conference. Excited to share our findings about pulmonary rehabilitation written resources from our PPIE event. 🔹 Consistency is key 🔹 Balance of self directed vs taught learning 🔹 Clear, visually engaging target resources #ERS2025

Lots of the PREC team presenting today at #ERScongress #ERS2025

Last poster up (co-creation of a CPD toolkit focussing on self management of respiratory health issues in people with LD) at the #ERS2925 do come along for a chat we are still looking for healthcare professionals that have worked with those with LD and asthma

Always looking for new members to join our respiratory networks from newbie researchers to experts! All welcome #ERS2025 - Nicola is at the conference if you want a chat!

A surprisingly pain free commute to the ERS from my hotel by bus (with my navigation skills) - ready to go! #ERS2025

Not the best start to #ERS2025 - flights cancelled, so car left, Piccadilly to Kings Cross, and a long queue for a hastily booked #Eurostar to #Brussels and onwards to #Amsterdam... Big respect to the @theblondefish team for sorting everything! And my 1st Eurostar too! #MC #host

Liking the welcome into Amsterdam (by train) for #ers2025

You know you are going to a big conference when you get a welcome at the airport! #ERS2025
